Acalypha wilkesiana

Beefsteak Plant, Copperleaf, Jacob's Coat, or Match-Me-If-You-Can

Showy foliage plants with a dazzling array of leaf forms and colors. While tropical in nature, they perform equally well in moderate temperatures as a summer accent plant. Precise identification of cultivars is difficult due to the natural variation of leaves. Hardy to 40F. Acalyphas unavailable in winter.

What is its proper botanical name? Botanists list the existence of three plant species, Acalypha pendula, Acalypha chamaedrifolia (Syn.: A. reptans, A. hispaniolae), and Acalypha pygmaea, all of which seem to be the same plant.
